Polyurethane Insulated Pipes with PVC Outer Casing for Small-diameter Water and Heat-pump Systems

WanFu Insulation supplies compact factory-prefabricated pipe systems with PPR, PERT-II, or thin-wall stainless-steel service pipes, rigid polyurethane insulation, and a PVC protective casing. The product is intended for hot-spring water, air-source heat-pump circulation, water supply, and anti-freezing pipeline protection.

Application


Explore our core polyurethane insulation solutions for industrial and project applications.

PVC composite pre-insulated pipes are mainly used for small-diameter hot spring water systems, air-source heat pump pipelines, and frost-protection water supply applications.

With a compact structure, excellent thermal insulation performance, and easy installation characteristics, these pipes are widely used in residential heating systems, energy-saving water circulation systems, and outdoor water supply projects where reliable heat preservation and protection are required.

Structure


A multi-layer structure designed for reliable steam transmission, efficient insulation, and long-term outdoor durability.

Advantages Over Traditional On-Site Insulation


  • Temperature Comparison Test

Under identical temperature conditions, one temperature probe is placed inside the insulated pipe while the other remains exposed to the outside environment. Both probes are then placed in a freezer simultaneously to compare temperature changes and evaluate the insulation performance.

  • Thermal Insulation Performance Verification

After 10 minutes in the freezer, the probe inside the insulated pipe shows no temperature change, while the exposed probe quickly drops to 0°C, demonstrating the excellent thermal insulation performance of the pipe.

  • Stable Thermal Insulation Performance

After 30 minutes of freezing exposure, the temperature inside the insulated pipe remains stable, while the uninsulated pipe drops to -2°C, demonstrating the excellent heat preservation capability of the insulation system.

  • Excellent Long-Term Heat Preservation Performance

After 12 hours of freezing exposure, the insulated pipe maintains a temperature of 1°C, while the uninsulated pipe drops to -23°C, demonstrating outstanding long-term thermal insulation performance and cold resistance.

  • Excellent Cold Resistance Performance

After 24 hours of continuous freezing exposure at -31°C, the temperature inside the insulated pipe remains at -8°C, demonstrating that the insulation layer significantly reduces heat transfer and provides reliable cold resistance performance.

Test Result Verification

After 24 hours under an extreme temperature environment of -31°C, the insulated pipe maintains an internal temperature of 1°C, while the exposed probe drops to -31°C.

This test proves the excellent thermal insulation performance of the pipe system, ensuring that water inside the pipe remains protected from freezing even in cold environments around -20°C.
